Get Organized: iPad Glitter Plugs

These are for me: DIY glitter color-coded plugs, an answer to a great need: wire organization.

Entangled electronic wires are a time waster. Which wires are for what accessory: wires for the iPhone, the Kindle , the iPod, plus the speaker cords, computer wires, etc. They all look alike. To me at least.

Have that problem also?

Glitter Nail Polish Comes to the Rescue

You’ll have fun allowing yourself to put glitter nail polish or otherwise glue  glitter all over your various cords / device extensions.

While searching for finding the right cord for the device that’s in your hand, you’ll have a smile on your face. 

DIY iPhone charger with GLITTER: this is fun!

 

What You Need

The first thing you will need is:
Glitter Nail Polish

How-to: if you are just going to use glitter polish, then do a layer at the time and let it dry.
Tip 1: Just as with your nails, tape off areas you do not wish to cover ahead of time.
Tip 2: this project a great way to use up last year’s colors.

Optional Extra 1:
Glitter Powder for Nail Art
If you want to use glitter powder, your project will end up much more glittery, even if you use a plain color nail polish base.
Optional Extra 2:
Rhinestone Gems for Nail Art
You can really have fun with rhinestones, and they are a bit addictive if you like bling. You can add them onto anything, … besides your nail polish of course.
Nail Polish Top Coat
The last step is to seal the glitter and polish in place and make it more durable. With a layer of top coat nail polish.
